README.txt
^^^^^^^^^^

This is the README file for the NuttX port to the ZiLog ZNEO MCU.

ZDS-II Compiler Versions
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

4.10.2
  The ZDS-II version 4.10.2 will not compile NuttX.  It reports "internal
  errors" on some of the files.  Upgrades to ZDS-II are available for
  download from the Zilog website: http://www.zilog.com/software/zds2.asp

4.11.0
  NuttX compiles correctly with the newer 4.11.0 version of the ZDS-II
  toolchain.  However, I have found a few issues:

  - The code will not run without the -reduceopt option.  There is,
    apparently, some optimization related issue.  This issue has not
    been analyzed as of this writing.

  - Not all NuttX logic will not run with the -regvars option.  There is
    at least one failure that has been reported to ZiLOG as incident 81400.

  - The Pascal add-on interpreter includes a large switch statement and
    exposes another compiler problem.  This is reported as incident 81459.

4.11.1
  As of this writing (30 September 2010), the latest release of ZDS-II for the
  ZNEO is 4.11.1.  It is unknown if this release includes fixes for incidents
  81400 and 81459 or not.  It is unknown if the code will run without -reduceopt
  either. (Basically, it compiles with 4.11.1, but is untested with that version).

If you use any version of ZDS-II other than 4.11.1 or if you install ZDS-II
at any location other than the default location, you will have to modify
two files:  (1) configs/z16f2800100zcog/*/setenv.sh and (2)
configs/z16f2800100zcog/*/Make.defs.  Simply edit these two files, changing
4.11.1 to whatever.

Issues
^^^^^^

There are several, important open issues with the ZNEO port (8 as of this writing).
See the TODO file in the top-level NuttX directory.  One of these should be
mentioned here because it causes a failure to compile Nuttx:

  Description: The file drivers/mmcsd/mmcsd_sdio.c generates an internal compiler
               error like:
 
               mmcsd\mmcsd_sdio.c
               Internal Error(0503) On line 2524 of "MMCSD\MMCSD_SDIO.C"
                   File <c3>, Args(562,46)

  Status:     Open.  Recommended workaround: remove mmcsd_sdio.c from
              drivers/mmcsd/Make.defs.  There is no SDIO support for the Z16 anyway
  Priority:   Low

This is bug in ZDS-II.  It was discovered in version 4.11.0 and still exists
in version 4.11.1.

Configuration Subdirectories
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

- source/ and include/
    These directories contain common logic for all z16f2800100zcog
    configurations.

Variations on the basic z8f162800100zcog configuration are maintained
in subdirectories.  To configure any specific configuration, do the
following steps:

   cd <nuttx-top-directory>/tools
   ./configure.sh z16f2800100zcog/<sub-directory>
   cd <nuttx-top-directory>
   make

Where <sub-directory> is the specific board configuration that you
wish to build.  The following board-specific configurations are
available:

- ostest
    This builds the examples/ostest application for execution from FLASH.
    See examples/README.txt for information about ostest.

- pashello

    Configures to use examples/pashello for execution from FLASH
    See examples/README.txt for information about pashello.

Check out any README.txt files in these <sub-directory>s.
